Printed exactly as expected and very predictably. I love it.

This item was a quick grab and ended up being my new go to filament for pla builds

Have used several roles in a highly recommend. It’s a great product.

It Printed very good. I keep praising this product.

Made a scrubber and also made a display table for my legos looks great!

These filaments whether pla or petg print flawless right out of the package

I purchased the Insignia PLA+ Black filament specifically for printing functional parts, and it has quickly become one of my favorite materials. The deep black color gives prints a clean, professional look, while the enhanced strength of PLA+ makes finished parts feel noticeably more durable than those printed with standard PLA. Insignia's PLA+ is designed with improved impact resistance and stronger layer adhesion while maintaining the ease of printing associated with regular PLA. What impressed me most was how easy it was to use. I didn't have to make major adjustments to my printer settings, and the filament produced smooth layers, crisp details, and consistent results throughout multiple prints. It's also designed for high-speed printing, low odor, and low warping, making it a great choice for both beginners and experienced makers. Compared to standard PLA, PLA+ offers several advantages. Parts are tougher, less brittle, and better able to withstand everyday handling. The stronger layer bonding also means printed components feel more solid and dependable, especially for brackets, tool holders, and other functional projects. Pros: - Rich, consistent black color - Stronger and less brittle than standard PLA - Excellent layer adhesion - Smooth finish with sharp details - Easy to print with minimal tuning - Low warping and low odor Cons: - Costs a little more than standard PLA - Premium performance may be unnecessary for simple display models - Limited long-term color options compared to some specialty filament brands Overall, this is an excellent PLA+ filament that delivers the perfect balance of printability, strength, and appearance. If you like the simplicity of PLA but want tougher, more durable prints, this filament is well worth the extra cost.

Insignia is BB’s house brand and they've jumped on the 3D printing train with their own white-label filament that you can get delivered or even pick up in-store at your nearest Best Buy. I received 5 spools in white/black PLA, PLA+, and PETG, and they arrived in excellent condition—vacuum-sealed individually, in a high-quality reusable box, dry and ready to print. I popped two spools into my printer and they were ready to print. The only major negatives compared to other filament are that these Insignia spools are made of cardboard instead of plastic and they do not include an RFID tag that allows automatic filament type and color detection. I'll likely transfer RFID tags from other spools or move the Insignia filament to an empty plastic spool to get this functionality, but they work fine otherwise—you can simply label and configure them manually. In terms of print quality, the prints came out great and had no issues with adhesion, color bleeding, or layer stacking. At nearly half the price of many competing filaments at full price—and even cheaper when on sale—these are a great alternative, especially if you need to pick up filament locally to finish a print and can't wait. I did a little research and a lot of people seem to think this is white-label filament, but regardless of who manufactures it, it works great!

If you do any amount of 3D printing, you know there are tons of options for filament these days, but also not all are equal. Some are better than others, some are amazing, and some are outright horrible. So far, my experience with the Insignia PLA filament has been somewhere around higher than average but below amazing. But I think the price is a huge factor in filament and the fact that this Insignia filament is so much cheaper and you can grab it in stores (assuming your local best buy has it in stock), is a huge bump in the pro column. So price is great, availability is great, how about quality? The Insignia PLA Black filament is great in terms of price and print quality. The black color in particular is a nice deep, not too shiny black. It looks similar to other brands black and has an even color throughout the prints. I think the color is good enough that you could easily use this for visual prints or practical. With proper print settings, you should have no visual issues with the black PLA. You could easily use this in test printing or for prints that are more functional than visual but it would have no issues in something you also want to show off. For example, the photo I attached is a carrying case for an electronic device I have and as soon as I pulled it off the printer I literally said, “Oh wow. This actually looks really good.” Shamefully, I assumed it wouldn’t be all that great of quality but I was very wrong. The strength is quite good as well. My print is meant to protect an electronic device in transit and I could have used PETG or even PLA+ but I wanted to test the print and decided to use a basic PLA. Now I’m sitting here realizing it’s perfectly fine and I don’t need to print it with anything stronger. Of course, the use and situation will determine if that’s possible, but for now, I’m going to say in the proper climate, this PLA is perfectly strong enough.. Again, given the price, I would say this has exceeded expectations. If you use this for testing, you can get a much closer to final print look than you would with other “discount” filaments that will actually cost more than this. But because it’s much cheaper, you can use this filament to test print and work out your print plan without feeling like you lost a ton of money. I haven’t even calibrated the filament or dried it and it’s still working great, right out of the box. I assume it will only be better once I dial it in. Overall, I am really happy Insignia is getting in the game and making a quality spool of filament I can buy in person, at a store, for less money than a “budget” filament. The roll comes neatly packaged in a vacuum sealed bag which is inside a cardboard box. It’s easy to store because it’s the same size and shape of all the other filament boxes I have. The spool is on a cardboard roll BUT surprisingly, I did not have any issues when using it with my bambu AMS2. Something I can not say about other brands with cardboard rolls. Usually I have to use special reel covers to help the AMS not error out, but after doing many hours of printing, I had 0 AMS errors. I actually trust cardboard rolls again, how crazy is that? And I should note, I have tried multiple spools of Insignia Filament with the same results. NO issues with the AMS. It’s just been a joy to print with. So if you need a reel of filament quickly, you need it cheap, but you need it to be good quality still, the insignia PLA has got you covered.

So price is great, availability is great, how about quality? The Insignia PLA White filament is a total win in terms of price and print quality. The white color in particular is a nice and bright white. I also have a roll of white PLA+ and oddly found it to be quite thin and translucent, but the basic PLA appears to be much more opaque. I don’t know enough about the differences to know why, but the PLA+ left me thinking I can’t use this when looks matter, but the PLA is actually printing like other top selling brands white. In the photos, you can see I printed part of a case for electronics to travel with and the PLA is very sturdy and feels like it won’t break. Of course, high or low temps, sun exposure etc can cause it to weaken, but if you want some cheaper filament to print knick knacks or non moving parts to sit on shelves, stuff like that, this PLA is actually plenty strong. And the color is accurate enough that you can use it for visual or practical use prints. The quality is so good that if you use this for testing, you can get a much closer to final print look than you would with other “discount” filaments that will actually cost more than this.

So price is great, availability is great, how about quality? The PLA+ filament from Insignia is great in terms of strength and ability to print. The black color in particular is a nice deep, shiny black. Very similar to other filaments I have had in black.

You could use this in test printing or for prints that are more functional than visual, this will work perfectly fine. The actual strength and quality is quite good as well. I printed a basic rectangle shape and tested the flex and scratch wear and it seemed within standards for PLA+.

I've gone through quite a few rolls of PLA over the years, and this Insignia Black PLA stands out as one of the better values I've found. From the moment I loaded it into my printer, everything worked smoothly. The filament fed consistently, produced clean extrusion, and delivered excellent print quality without requiring any special tuning. It is designed for reliable, everyday 3D printing with tangle-free winding and broad printer compatibility, which matched my experience. What I liked most was the appearance of the finished prints. The black color is rich and uniform, helping hide layer lines and giving parts a polished, professional look. Small text, sharp corners, and fine details came out crisp, while larger prints maintained good dimensional accuracy throughout the build. The filament is also designed to provide smooth surfaces and consistent results, making it suitable for everything from prototypes to decorative models. One of my favorite prints with this filament was a detailed Batman figure. The deep black color was perfect for the character, and the filament captured fine details in the cape, cowl, and armor while producing a clean, professional-looking finish. Another bonus is that it prints with very little odor, making long print sessions much more pleasant. The spool arrived neatly wound, and I never experienced any tangles or feeding issues during testing. Features listed for this filament include low odor, color consistency, and clog-resistant performance. Pros: - Consistent extrusion from start to finish - Deep black color with a professional appearance - Smooth surfaces and good detail reproduction - Low odor during printing - Neatly wound, tangle-free spool - Excellent value for a 1kg roll Cons: - Cardboard spool may not be ideal for every filament storage setup - Not as impact-resistant as specialty materials like PLA+ or PETG - Additional color options would be welcome Overall, this filament delivers exactly what most makers want: reliable performance, attractive prints, and great value. It's an easy recommendation for anyone looking for a dependable black PLA for everyday 3D printing.

Insignia is BestBuy's house brand and they've jumped on the 3D Printing train with their own white label filament that you can get delivered or even pick up in-store at your nearest BestBuy. I received 5 spools in white/black PLA, PLA+ and PETG and they arrived in excellent condition, vacuum-sealed individually, super high-quality re-usable box and dry ready to print. I popped two spools into my BambuLabs P2S and they were ready to print. The only major negatives compared to Bambu filament is that these Insignia spools are made of cardboard instead of plastic and they do not include the RFID tag which allows the AMS2 Pro to autodetect your filament type and color. I'll likely use my Bambu RFIDs and transfer them over, or move the Insignia filament to an empty Bambu spool to get this functionality but they work fine otherwise, you can just label and set them in Bambu Studio and everything works fine. In terms of print quality, the prints came out great and had no issues with adhesion or bleeding or stacking with other Bambu lab filament. And at nearly half the price at full price and even a few bucks cheaper on sale than Bambu filament, these are a great alternative especially if you need to pick some filament up locally to finish a print and can't wait. I did a little research and a lot of people seem to think this is OEM/white label Polymaker filament but no matter what, it works great!

Bottom Line: Insignia’s PLA+ 1.75mm Filament prints smoother, more durable prints than regular PLA. Pros: prints better than regular PLA; box and spool shows print parameters for different filaments Cons: none Review: For those who might be newer to 3D printing, PLA and PLA+ are slightly different filaments with PLA+ typically costing a little bit more than regular PLA. Although PLA and PLA+ are the same type of plastic, PLA+ has some additives that make it more durable and heat resistant than PLA. Conveniently, PLA+ uses the same print settings as regular PLA (the only difference is the max print speed on PLA+ is slightly slower), and so it's also easy to use. Out of the box, Insignia’s PLA+ filament printed without hassle on my Elegoo Neptune 4 Max. My first print was a phone stand, which took about 2.5 hours. I used the slicing software’s default PLA settings for nozzle and print bed temperatures with 0.2mm layer height. I printed without adhesion or supports. Overall, the print itself turned out really well. PLA+ prints a little smoother than PLA, and the layer lines are only really noticeable upon close inspection. Frankly, there's no real downside to PLA+ over PLA except that it costs a tiny bit more per roll.

I always wondered why more places did not previously get into 3D printing supplies. I am so excited that I can now purchase fillament locally at Best Buy. We have two 3D printers. The one we use most often is a Bambu Labs A1 Combo. That is what I used to print the panda slinkies in the pictures below. This fillament came vaccume sealed with a desicant bag in the center. The fillament seemed to be good and dry right out of the package. These are on cardboard spools. I felt the spool was nice and sturdy and loved that it had a window to see how much fillament was left on the roll as well as multiple holes in order to tie off the end when not in use. I decided to try both the black and white Insignia PLA in one project. I printed 3 panda slinkies. They came out perfect! With my printers preset generic pla settings, both fillaments printed flawlessly. I did not experiance any strinnging or any other flaws while printing. The white came out clean and crisp. The slinky is is strong and flexible. I was able to stretch and flex it without it becoming distorted quickly. This fillament exibits all the qualities of a quality PLA.

PLA filament is the easiest to use and serves as one of the most popular for those just getting into 3D Printing. This Insignia brand filament prints very well at the Bamboo branded temperatures with ease. It does not come on a plastic spool, instead on a cardboard spool. This roll can be easily transitioned to a reusable plastic spool if needed. This is the ideal filament type if you are looking to make quick projects and prototypes. The filament size is the same as others sitting around 1.75mm, it passed the flex testing to make sure it was not too brittle before use. Initial setup is the same as your Bamboo setup for install, cleaning when changing colors, and coil bleed offs during use. Overall print quality is the same as others that I have tried and all prints have been successful with your standard shrinkage and slight changes that would normally need to be accounted for. Overall the Insignia filament provided great reproduction details and layer adhesion while it did not stick heavily to the print bed making it easily removed from the print bed. The selection of colors available makes it a good buy at the price Best Buy has it listed for everyday printing projects.

PLA-Plus is very similar in nature to standard PLA, with improved characteristics to aide in overcoming limiting factors to PLA. This is a stronger durability while being more heat-resistant. Knowing this, found the prints to come out cleaner on the surface of very detailed prints; dragon and special detail-oriented prints. Typically, these colors are brighter while be less prominent to shrinkage. Using this to print out some of the clamps we use to hold cables and boards together proved its durability to other filaments used at a higher cost. Definitely worth a switch to cut your printing costs down. I did try printing outside of the Bamboo standard settings to see if there were any changes and while most other options worked, there were some issues to note. I did find the profiles of Polymaker worked just as well as the Bamboo profiles in printing. This worked great in test prints for clips to hold filament in place when having to chnage spools to another filament format to meet printing needs.
